Wage garnishment is a court order that forces an employer to withhold a portion of an employee's paycheck to pay off a debt. This only happens after a creditor wins a lawsuit. Employers must comply with the order or face legal penalties.

If you're facing wage garnishment, don't blame your employer. Contact a bankruptcy attorney like Castle Law Office to explore options like bankruptcy to stop the garnishment.
